Ian Mackendrick Hendry (13 January 1931 – 24 December 1984) was an English film, television and stage actor best known for his parts in British TV series of the 1960s and 1970s, including the original The Avengers and The Lotus Eaters, as well as for his roles in films such as The Hill, (1965), Repulsion (1965), and Get Carter. Peers recognised him as exceptionally gifted, but he never fulfilled the promise of his early career, in large part due to a severe alcohol problem. Hendry, who was still able to turn in an impressive performance in his declining years, died aged 53.
Hendry was born in Ipswich, Suffolk on 13 January 1931. His father, James Hendry was born in 1901 in Glasgow. James obtained a degree in Chemistry from Glasgow University before moving to Ipswich in 1924 to take up a graduate position with R & W Paul Ltd. (now BOCM Pauls Ltd). His mother, Enid (née Rushton) was born in Durham in 1906. Shortly after her birth, Enid moved to Ipswich with her parents, George and Edith Rushton. George Rushton was an artist of some considerable talent and was Head of the Ipswich Art School from 1906-1929.

Fantastic afternoon of amazing live music down at Bar Bliss Kirkintilloch..
Well, it's Tuesday night
How I'd like to be inside at this time
Watchin' T.V. is killin' me
It's such a drag, tonight
I feel like Jason
Just found a rusty fleece
And the Cyclops, all laughin' at me
You can't tame wild east
Wild east, wild east
Wild east, wild east
Now some cynic from the methadone clinic
He keeps on bothering me
He writes all my lyrics backwards on diapers
And hangs 'em from the local trees
Watch out, white boy
Don't argue with a sawn off piece
I'm a crazy son, mama
I love the grease of Wild East
Wild east, wild east
Wild east, wild east
Wild east, wild east
Wild east, wild east
Now Jezebel don't feel too well, she talks to Jane
'Bout a one way conversation on a subway train
Hey, they took away her wallet and her valise
Love, hate, love, hate, love, hate, love, hate, wild east
Wild east, wild east
Wild east, wild east
Wild east, wild east
